Sorry, Too Late
James was the first to fall to his knees as he cried out in remorse, "Mr. Gabriel, we are sorry! We're willing to apologize and make up for all your losses, but please let Darius go! He is the last of my bloodline!"
"Yes, that's right! We only ask for our son to live. In return, we'll offer up everyone in the Norwood family!"
Josephine threw herself to the floor as well.
Thump! Thump!
They slammed their heads against the floor as they groveled, uncaring of the fact that their foreheads were bruised and bleeding.
Or perhaps it wasn't that they didn't care, it was that they didn't dare to stop.
Alice, Beverly, and Colette also started to cry for mercy with tears streaming down their cheeks.
